Regarding the mediator, namely Claryssa, she was entirely unbiased. In actual fact she took no part in the discussions, other than organisation and keeping the situation calm.

The news article written states clearly and concisely the events of the meeting. The fact it seems biased against Ashtan is because they were unwilling to negotiate any of their terms.

Penned by my hand on the 17th of Ero, in the year 235 AF.
